2015 Ford Transit 2.2L Diesel · PX65 VHT

The vehicle passed its most recent MOT test on 30th March 2026 at 157,341 miles, but with several advisories. The trend in maintenance appears to be worsening, with recurring issues related to suspension and brake components. Specifically, worn suspension arm pins or bushes have been reported in multiple tests, while corroded brake pipes and excessively binding brakes have also been flagged. Furthermore, the recent test highlighted an inoperative nearside rear registration plate lamp and a worn offside rear tyre. The recorded mileage of 157,341 miles, accumulated over approximately 11 years, is relatively high for a vehicle of this age. The annual mileage of around 14,304 miles is also higher than average. Notable gaps in the MOT history are limited, with tests spaced approximately every 12-18 months. However, the rapid accumulation of mileage between the 2023 and 2024 tests, with an increase of over 14,000 miles in just 12 months, is a cause for concern. A buyer should inspect the vehicle's suspension and brake components in person, paying particular attention to the nearside front suspension arm pin or bush and the offside rear brake pipe. The presence of corroded brake pipes and excessively binding brakes in previous tests suggests a potential risk of brake failure. Additionally, the worn offside rear tyre, which was close to the legal limit in the most recent test, should be inspected for signs of further wear. It is also worth noting that the vehicle has a history of oil leaks, which should be investigated further. The advisories and failures recorded in the vehicle's MOT history suggest a need for closer inspection of the vehicle's mechanical condition. A buyer should consider the potential costs and risks associated with addressing these issues, particularly the corroded brake pipes and excessively binding brakes.
